Manchester United and Arsenal prove why the Premier League is still the best in the world

Manchester United 4-0 AC Milan.
Arsenal 5-0 Porto.
Real Madrid 1-1 Lyon.
There has been talk over the past few months that the Premier League has began to fall behind La Liga in terms of it’s overall quality. With players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Xabi Alonso swapping England for Spain last summer, many felt that La Liga would [...]

Arsenal must now be considered favourites to win the Premier League title

Although the bookies still have Chelsea and Manchester United ahead of Arsenal in the market to win this season’s Premier League, I personally believe that Arsene Wenger’s men should now be considered the favourites.
The 3-1 at home to Burnley yesterday wasn’t great, however that win now leaves Arsenal just two points behind Manchester United and [...]

So who wants Stephen Ireland? Arsenal? Chelsea? Liverpool? Man United? Spurs? Villa?

Over the past four or five years, Stephen Ireland has, without a doubt, become one of the finest midfield talents in the Premier League.
The 23-year old played so well last season, he was nominated for the PFA’s Young Player of the Year award.
Despite not winning the award, Ireland was voted Manchester City’s Player of the [...]

Cristiano who?

That feeling was further heightened when Sir Alex Ferguson failed to replace the Portuguese winger with the £80 million the club received from the deal.
7 months on [...]

A Flutter for the Weekend – Wayne Rooney Hat-Trick 12/1

Manchester United face Portsmouth tomorrow in what is likely to be a one-sided affair (quite the understatement, I know).
Sir Alex Ferguson’s men are bang in form at the moment and many, including myself feel Manchester United are an absoloute cert for tomorrow’s game.
I can see United scoring four or five goals and I think a [...]
